TI  - Effect of Laser Treatment on Surface Morphology of Indirect Composite Resin: 
      Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) Evaluation.
PG  - 92-5
AB  - INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the Scanning 
      electron microscope (SEM) of indirect composite conditioned by Erbium-Doped 
      Yttrium Aluminum Garnet (Er:YAG) laser, Neodymium-Doped Yttrium Aluminium Garnet 
      (Nd:YAG) laser and Carbon Dioxide (CO2) laser. METHODS: 18 indirect composite 
      blocks (GC Gradia DA2, Japan) with 15 x 10 x 10 mm dimensions were made. The 
      bonding surface of these blocks were polished, then the samples were divided into 
      six groups as follow: Er:YAG laser with output power of 0.5 W and frequency of 10 
      Hz, Nd:YAG laser with output power of 0.25, 0.5 W and frequency of 10 Hz, CO2 
      laser with output power of 0.5 W and frequency of 10 Hz and 5 Hz, and no 
      treatment. Then, the surfaces were evaluated by SEM. RESULTS: Irregularities were 
      observed in Er:YAG laser samples compared to control group that produced suitable 
      retention for adhesion of cements. Nd:YAG and CO2 lasers showed melting areas. 
      CONCLUSION: Among different lasers, Er:YAG laser can be used as an alternative 
      technique for surface treatment of indirect composites.
